20,406 PointsYou have the right idea. However, you've added the field inside the getColor() Method. Try adding it just about the privately declared String color instead.
class GoKart {
public static final int MAX_BARS = 8;
private String color;
private int barCount; //note the field here
public GoKart(String color) {
this.color = color;
}
public String getColor() {
return color;
}
}
